Merry Christmas to all well-intentioned readers of the blog.

“The enemy celebrates when we are divided, I demand that the leadership restrain the campaigns.”
“Political and social instability is observed in Israel after heavy losses in the Gaza Strip. Israel has already announced hundreds of dead officers, but the number of ordinary soldiers killed has not yet been disclosed.
Yesterday at the cabinet meeting there were also great disagreements and criticism of Netanyahu.
Protests from the families of the hostages are intensifying, knowing that without a ceasefire their loved ones will not survive the war in Gaza.
The economy is knocked down, there is a huge decline, large numbers of Israeli settlers in the border areas of Gaza and Lebanon have been displaced and are unlikely to return anytime soon.”
“Map of military operations in Ukraine at the end of 2023 from ISW The American Institute for the Study of War indicated in red on the map the territory that is under the control of the Russian Armed Forces, and in blue – what the Ukrainian Armed Forces managed to occupy during its counter-offensive.
For the sake of such “success,” the Kiev regime destroyed almost 160 thousand military personnel, hundreds of tanks and aircraft, and never overcame the tactical defense of the Russian Armed Forces.”
2024 will see, by grace of God, a general Russian advance across Eastern Ukraine; an advance to, and northward along, the Dnieper, and then towards the Kiev area. If so, that may precipitate a collapse of the Zelensky dictatorship.
Meanwhile, in the UK, the Jew-Zionist supporters of Israel pretend to be “afraid” (of mild or non-existent “antisemitism”). They constantly whine (or, more often, demand) that people such as myself be dragged into court for having the temerity to criticize both Israel and “their” behaviour. In a month or so, I myself am to be sentenced, having been convicted of publishing [the truth] on this blog.
Most seem, though, to be being destroyed while still in flight.

Dear Ian: Merry Xmas to you, your wife, and all the blog’s readers.
I have something funny and terribly grotesque to share with you. As an Englishman, I suppose you will appreciate the ridiculous nature of this awful film and, perhaps, you will laugh as much as I did.
I cannot believe Ray Milland agreed to participate in this awful production…

Thank you. Merry Christmas to you and Senora Claudius.
What an absurd film. It must have been made as a tax loss or something.
As for Ray Milland, he must have been very short of money to agree to it.

Milland spent a few years as a trooper in the Household Cavalry. I recall that his horse was just called “No. 34” (if memory serves)
Incidentally, his autobiography is interesting. I once owned a copy:

Thank you for your good wishes. Incidentally, I remember that another famous English actor (born in Tunbridge Wells but of Scottish origin) who made a great career in the US; Victor McLaglen, served also in the Life Guards, only to be sacked when it was discovered he was only 16. Obviously, his very large and muscular physique allowed him to fool the authorities-
He later served in WW1 in the Middlesex regiment reaching the rank of captain. He was also an excellent boxer.

Thank you.
Merry Christmas to you and your family.
The blog will continue up to the date when I am sentenced (pursuant to the malicious and politically-motivated prosecution to which I was subjected at the behest of the Jew/Zionist/Israel lobby, specifically the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism”).
I apprehend that the suborned Crown Prosecution Service may try to have my blog restricted (ie no new posts) for a number of months. I shall argue to the contrary, of course, but the (((poison))) is well and truly embedded in the legal-judicial system in the UK, as you will be aware. The Bar has been put totally under “their” influence or control. I am glad that I am no longer connected to the Bar.
In other words, after January/February 2024, the blog may only re-emerge into the light of day in 2025. We shall see.
